WTB: Master Cylinder for 81 Cx500 D

Hi

Need a new master cylinder for a 81 Honda CX500. Current one only pushes air through the brake lines.

Also: any idea on other bikes' m.cylinders that would be compatible?

Thanks

I bought one of these and I love it. You can see it on my bike here. I also recommend the braided line from JDA Enterprises. do a search and you'll have all the info.

Oh, I forgot. I still have the old one which you can have, but it would need a serious rebuild.

Yeah, that's the same as mine. It works great. I only wish I had a second disk!
